Why trading won't work(Detailed)
Taken from my comment on a post,
Do you want the truth? The ugly truth that no one wants to hear? Well here it is. Those who want trading are literally too lazy to grind the items. That's for SOME people.
The reason why it's illogical to set a trade system is because of the lack of items in destiny. It barely reaches 2000, trade systems are enacted on games with millions of items, because of the broader selection.
Do you know how long this game is supposed to last? We have at least 2-3 more months until HoW, that's plenty of time to get every single item in the game with dedication.
Want to know why BUNGIE won't give you trading? Because they wouldn't be able to stretch out their game. The game was meant to be gradually completed, many players impatiently seek everything within 1 week and don't know what a reset is.
Do you like a game dictated by your dedication to get an item, or the amount of real world money you have to buy it? Because if trading were enacted, you'd see people sell items for profit, and then ANYONE could get everything instantly. You REALLY don't want this.
It won't happen, it can't happen.
Don't get too butthurt about logic, it's there for a reason.
[b]EDIT: In the 2-3 months, exotics are not included in reasoning, due to the xur system.[/b]

Frankly, I've played plenty of games where people sold stuff for real world profit, where anybody could get anything instantly, and nobody with their priorities even slightly straight would do it. Only the idiots and the desperately rich do it, a trading system wouldn't cripple the game nearly as much as you think it would. Hell, considering most games economies revolve around a few key items at the higher levels, Destiny wouldn't be that much out of place with the number of exotics/legendaries worth having that it has. That being said, I agree with you to a point. We shouldn't have a full on trading system, anybody trading with anybody, but I feel we should have a fireteam trading system. Something where after a fireteam clears an activity the participants able to trade any rewards they got amongst themselves, there's nothing more infuriating then getting duplicates of what your friend wants while they get duplicates of what you want. [spoiler]Also, unless you're supremely lucky it takes way more then 2-3 months of dedicated playing to get all the exotics. There are some people who have been playing since release who are still far from having everything. You can go months without getting an exotic or something you don't already have, especially with Xur being the bastard he is.[/spoiler]
